Erging from Madara's lair, Shin reflected on their conversation:
"Surprising how much he's willing to reveal—he even told about the Rinnegan's location, how he placed it in Nagato, plus so of his future plans."
Of course, for Shin, none of that was new. But it showed how far Madara would go to gain Shin's 'trust.'
"He's not worried I might just snatch his eyes now?" Shin mused. "I suppose he's got backup plans. Or perhaps he truly believes I can't kill him easily in his hideout. In any case, I have no use for his Rinnegan. My eyes—are beyond that level now."
....
anwhile, back at the lair, White Zetsu fretted:
"Madara-sama, are you sure it's wise to tell Uzumaki Shin so much?"
"He wouldn't fully trust otherwise," Madara said calmly. "He must believe obtaining the Rinnegan requires Hashirama's cells. That's the only path to forging a real alliance."
"But what if he just decides to take your Rinnegan, rather than trying to evolve his own?"
A dark glint passed through Madara's eyes.
"Then I'll kill him," he said coldly. "I'm not afraid to do so if it cos to that. Although it might cost dear, I won't let him sabotage the Eye of the Moon Project."
....
Shin returned ho to the Land of Whirlpools, finding no one inside at first. Guessing they'd be at the training grounds, he headed over and discovered Tsunade, Mikoto, Kushina, and Konan all there.
"You're back, what did Uchiha Madara want?" Kushina asked curiously
Shin noted her curiosity and smiled faintly.
"Kushina, you're so curious."
"I'm not the only one. Look at Tsunade, Mikoto, and Konan. They're all curious."
Tsunade, Mikoto, and Konan certainly looked up. With a shrug, Shin gave them a concise answer:
"He just complained that I ssed up his master plan. Tried to appease so I wouldn't blow it all up prematurely."
They nodded, seeing as that matched their expectations. With that, Shin went off to continue his training.
....
Ten days passed.
Shin had estimated a week to fully integrate the Nine-Tails chakra with the other eight.
Instead, it took a bit longer—ten days to be precise. But at last, all his and the Tailed Beasts' energy rged into a single, refined pool. His chakra now felt vastly denser.
The final step—is fusing that new Ten-Tails–level chakra with natural energy to create the ultimate [Six Paths Senjutsu]. Because Shin already possessed Sage Mode, that part was relatively easy. In half a day, he was done.
"Six Paths Sage Mode," Shin murmured.
A thin, regal cloak of chakra manifested around him—originally pitch-black, with red tomoe at the collar.
Behind him hovered nine black [Truth-Seeking Orbs], seemingly unremarkable but holding the power to disintegrate almost anything.
This was the power Naruto had gained in the original story with the help of the Sage of Six Paths. Shin had obtained it on his own.
He eyed the black coat with mild disappointnt.
"A sha it's black. I'd prefer a white robe"
His Susanoo was black. And when he had experinted with Tenseigan Chakra Mode—the Chakra that enveloped him was also black.
Now, even his Six Paths Sage Mode robe was black. Did he subconsciously like Black that much?
He wondered if he could alter it. Concentrating, he changed the cloak to a stark white, with black tomoe. Evidently, the appearance was freely customizable.
"That's more like it," he said, amused. "It's basically a shaped manifestation of my chakra, so I can shift the style however I like. Could I skip buying clothes altogether?"
He chuckled to himself.
Just then, he heard footsteps. He turned to see Tsunade, Mikoto, Kushina, and Konan approaching, evidently drawn by his sudden outpouring of power.
"Shin," Tsunade said, eyes narrowing, "why are there black spheres floating behind you?"
Kushina, curious, reached out as if to poke one. Shin quickly raised his hand:
"Don't touch these. They're called Truth-Seeking Orbs—anyone without Six Paths chakra who touches them will be erased."
Kushina yanked her hand back, startled.
"Seriously?" she muttered, eyeing the orbs with new caution.
Shin nodded.
Shin's Truth-Seeking Balls were obtained through Six Paths Sage Mode. If they were destroyed or sealed, they would be gone forever.
"So…this ans you've finished your Six Paths Senjutsu?" Mikoto asked, noticing the luminous energy cloak around him.
"Yes. After half a year of work, I finally achieved it." He smiled.
Kushina stepped closer.
"Any chance I could learn it too?"
Shin mused briefly, then shook his head.
"Not through normal training. But once I truly master Six Paths–level powers, I might be able to grant you the power to activate Six Paths Sage Mode."
Shin thought of how the Sage of Six Paths had given Naruto the Six Paths Yang Power. If Hagoromo could do it, so could he.
"Then I'll wait until you master Six Paths power," Kushina said.
Tsunade observed him with curiosity.
"Is Six Paths level considered godhood?" Tsunade asked.
"To most ninja, yeah, it's 'Godlike.' But if we're talking a literal, Omnipotent god who can create or destroy entire universes—that's far beyond the power of Six Paths."
"That man you fought on the moon, Ryūsuke—was that also Six Paths–level?" she asked.
"Right," Shin affird. "He used the Tenseigan, which placed him on par with a typical Six Paths user."
In terms of combat ability, Ryūsuke was probably as strong as Naruto and Sasuke in their final battle against Kaguya.
And in terms of destructive power—Ryūsuke was even stronger. His Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion was incredibly powerful.
